Posted: 10th March 2021
The first official trailer for Here Are The Young Men has been released – starring Dean-Charles Chapman (Game of Thrones; 1917), Finn Cole (Peaky Blinders), Anya Taylor-Joy (The Queen's Gambit), Ferdia Walsh-Peelo (Sing Street), Travis Fimmel (Vikings) and Conleth Hill (Game of Thrones).
Based on the acclaimed novel by Irish writer Rob Doyle, the film follows a group of Dublin teenagers, celebrating their final summer of freedom after leaving secondary school – while also dealing with their own inner-demons.
Matthew, a troubled teenager on the cusp of adulthood, finishes school along with the menacing Kearney and nihilistic Rez. In a final summer of excess, Matthew falls in love with his childhood sweetheart Jen, but is dragged into shocking acts of transgression by the increasingly psychopathic Kearney.
Here Are The Young Men, written and directed by Irish filmmaker and actor Eoin Macken, originally premiered at the Galway Film Fleadh last year.
It will be released on digital platforms on April 30.
